Menhir of Graigue
The menhir of Graigue stands in the townland of Graigue ( Irish An Ghráig ) at the eastern end of Sea Hill at Lispole on the Dingle Peninsula in County Kerry in Ireland .
The menhir ( English Standing Stone ) has been divided into two parts. The upright part is over 3.5 meters high, over 2.5 meters wide and 0.7 m thick. The smaller, split-off plate is about 3.0 meters high and over 2.0 meters wide. It's at an angle of about 45 degrees on two stands, but neither is anchored to the ground, so they're probably modern.
Nearby is the lie Wedge Tomb of Doonmanagh , also called "Púicín to Chairn" the stone row and the menhir of Ardamore .
